<0> Jacky^: that is a known bug with yaird, check the bts for yaird, basically its putting ide_generic in your initrd before your actual ide controller, so ide_generic is taking full control and doesn't allow fancy stuff like dma
<1> stew: he already tried to generate a different initrd, but something didn't work
<2> ok .. a second ..
<0> tralala: yeah, he tried to generate a different initrd by editing the config files for the wrong initrd tool
<2> I added sis5513 as fist line in /etc/mkinitrd/modules
<0> Jacky^: yes, but you aren't using mkinitrd, you are using yaird
<2> uhm ..
<1> is mkinitrd yaird?
<2> then, could be a solution to remove yaird and force to use mkinitrd ?
<0> Jacky^: if you switch to initramfs-tools this would work first time, but that requires you to install udev, you can work (maybe) around this bug in yaird by reading the bug report and following the instructions in there (possibly substituting your ide chipset for whichever they are fixing in the bug)
<0> Jacky^: no, your choises are yaird or initramfs-tools
<0> tralala: no
<1> but Jacky^ is using mkinitrd
<3> how can I change the interface being used when debconf is running, it says can't initialise: Gnome, fall back to dialog
<1> aren't you Jacky^?
<4> stew: so i recompiled the kernel and booted it. He detects the promise controller, and mounts hde,hdef ( primary master/slvae) and hdg/hdh for the slave one. /dev/hde9 should be my root partition
<0> !dbugs 345374
<5> #345374:N[yaird] yaird: Cannot turn DMA support for ide devices on; Fri, 30 Dec 2005 23:33:01 UTC
<6> Guys... I can't remember. Do I *have* to be in expert mode in sarge's installer to switch straight onto testing instead of stable?
<4> stew: but he did not mount it and failed in panic
<0> xored: did you compile your root filesystem as a module or statically (ext3 probably?)
<1> stew: I had the same problem with my amd64. I solved it by making my own initrd image with mkinitrd and /etc/mkinitrd/modules
<0> tralala: which kernel version?
<1> 2.6.8-somthing (from sarge)
<7> What good ways do I have to make my C-code appear highlighted in HTML code ?
<0> tralala: i don't think mkinird works with 2.6.{14,15,16}
<8> i wish i had seen this earlier :'(
<8> <Wyzard> dr1v3r: You could run fsck on the root filesystem from your SSH shell, and fix any problems it finds, before you reboot... then, hopefully, it should come up without errors after the reboot, without requiring any console access
<7> Or python or any code, but code highlighting is something I need now ....
<8> its now dead :( i rebooted and it aint come back online
<1> stew: oh, I see... so there is this new yaird thingie that I haven't heard about!
<9> Woody^working: type ':so \$VIMRUNTIME/syntax/2html.vim' in vim
<1> dr1v3r: when you ask questions it's good to *actually* read the answers. Now you need to call your provider.
<7> ft: I would like to have this on the webserver, not on the client. I have that allready with vim, but other people add their code and asked me to change it to highighting.
<10> jjazz: will you be there tomorrow too ?
<6> How do I tell the debian installer to install etch instead of sarge?
<6> (do I need to be in expert mode?)
<4> stew: i have checked this before, its buld in ( ext3)
<10> !d-i
<5> For stable/sarge: http://www.debian.org/releases/sarge/debian-installer/ and the development page for the installer(ISOs for etch/testing) is http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
<10> Dewi: you could install sarge and upgrade of course
<6> abrotman: Whenever I follow those links I end up downloading an unstable installer and it doesn't work
<10> it's the etch installer
<11> Is it possible to configure a package for a certain location (--prefix) and install it in another?
<10> first link is sarge .. second is etch
<7> ft: You know a way how to do this ?
<6> abrotman: but the etch one is newer, less stable
<10> Dewi: duh .. it's still in development .. install sarge .. then upgraded
<10> upgrade
<2> stew: im having an issue also running yaird: yaird -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.14-2-686
<6> abrotman: I tried literally 3 of them about 5 months ago, and none of them installed to completion
<2> yaird error: could not open /usr/lib/yaird/conf/Templates.cfg (fatal)
<2> :(
<4> stew: i have ext2 and 3 build in
<9> Woody^working: vim -c ":syntax on" -c ":set ft=$filetype" -c ":so \$VIMRUNTIME/syntax/2html.vim" -c ":wqa" $file
<12> Dewi: with the expert parameter you have a choice of stable, testing, or unstable to choose from
<6> abrotman: right. But isn't there a way to get the sarge installer to ask me about testing during install, so I don't get all this outdated base stuff when I'm going to immediately upgrade?
<10> Dewi: see limpio
<7> ft: Should I change all the html files with this command ?
<10> Dewi: there is a way .. but i thought it was from the BC .. but he says the expert will do it
<4> stew: i dont need reiserFS, JFS and stuff or ?
<6> abrotman: expert makes me nervous, apart from that option. Oh well... I can always hit enter :)
<9> Woody^working: what do you mean? it's for turning code to html
<6> abrotman / limpio : thanks for that
<12> np
<10> i've only used the expert mode once
<10> and i was trying to install stable :)
<7> ft: Sorry, maybe that is said wrong.
<6> abrotman: I used to use it, but I prefer a life of simplicity now. Except that I'm still on this occasion going to install testing at home. :P
<13> i've hardly touched a debian installation cd (any)
<3> how can I change the interface being used when debconf is running, it says can't initialise: Gnome, fall back to dialog
<13> it was always knoppix & debootstrap
<6> abrotman: I've got my fingers crossed that the worst days of etch instability are behind us
<7> ft: I would like to post C-Code and the webserver takes it, highlightes it and puts it into the actuall HTML code.
<10> Dewi: don't count on it .. i ***ume xorg7 still has to go in
<6> abrotman: bah, X is broken anyway.
<6> abrotman: I'm running headless so it's VNC all the way, and X <-> VNC haven't been playing nice anyway
<10> in what ?
<10> how is X broken?
<9> Woody^working: i know, the command i posted loads $file (eg. main.c) converts it to html and saves it as $file.html (main.c.html to stick with the example)
<6> basically if I run VNC on top of an actual xfree86 instance, it's horrendously slow, like 10 secs to draw the screen
<4> abrotman: could you help me ? Iam trying to switch form 2.4 to 2.6 and compiled a kernel. After finally build in ext, promise controller it should boot but files. I just tryied to rund cfdisk and he fails with an error message
<9> Woody^working: take a look at <http://www-users.rwth-aachen.de/frank.terbeck/comp/data/fvwm/gen_menu_wallpapers.pl.html>;
<6> and if I run the vnc's x server, I get random failures sometimes where the whole X environment just echos "display not found!" to the log and just dies
<10> xored: on sarge ?
<9> Woody^working: it's perl code, that's converted by that vim command...
<4> abrotman: bad logical partition9 : enlargeds logical partitions overlap
<4> abrotman: debian sarge stable
<10> xored: the easiest way i've found is to install the sarge 2.6 kernel .. then compile your own
<9> Woody^working: works with everything that vim puts colors on
<4> abrotman: ok
<7> ft: I know there is a vim to html parser or something like that. Do you know this ?
<6> abrotman: anyway it basically works okay for weeks or months and then suddenly decides not to run anymore for >2mins at a time. I'm praying this stops occurring soon; it's quite annoying.
<10> xored: there are packages in sarge required for 2.6 but not for 2.4
<4> but i had even problems installing the whole system with 2.6 cause he could not mount root then..
<4> abrotman: i will try that right now
<9> Woody^working: erm, i guess that's the '2html.vim' I mentioned above...
<10> xored: oh .. it's Promise RAID ?
<6> abrotman: but I'm reinstalling now so I'll see how it goes. brb... reboot into expert mode
<4> abrotman: no, no raid. Just a promise 20268, ATA 100
<7> ft: Well, is it in vim-common ?
<10> xored: and 2.6 just doesn't work ?
<7> ft: I read about vim beeing able to do this, but I didn't know if it was put in a seperate package.
<9> Woody^working: it's in vim-runtime
<10> /nick TerMIaL
<9> Woody^working: at least in sid....
<10> except i can't spell
<7> ft: thanks
<4> abrotman: i wil try it again, right no
<7> ft: thanks very much :-)
<10> xored: did you check any bug reports ?
<9> ft: np
<4> abrotman: it cannot be
<4> abrotman: i just reainstalled the whole system from debaina sarge stable / unstable mix to debian stable ( sarge
<10> !flamethrower
<5> Ever seen what happens when you put fire to plastic? This is what happens when you mix your sarge sources with testing/unstable
<4> any idea abrotman ?
<13> Woody^working: are you still interested in the script?
<10> xored: so the standard sarge 2.6 kernel does not work correct?
<10> xored: and it says it's because it can't find the hda ?
<4> abrotman: i works, i had rthe std kernel..
<7> ootput: In what script ?
<4> abrotman: he finds the controller, promise the says, he mounts Prmary master to hde ( thats exactly my hd)
<13> Woody^working: conf 2 html
<4> abrotman: sorry for the bad spelling
<7> ootput: Well I am looking at the script, yes. Why ?
<4> abrotman: so to summarize : I had the standard sarge stable kernel with that promise controller running before, but other libs where mixed, so i was advised to set up the whole system again
<10> which is a good idea probably
<10> xored: so if the standard 2.6 kernel works .. why are oyu compiling your own ?
<4> abrotman: i want a clean, not overloaded kernel
<4> abrotman: ipv6 disabled and all that. I just want to use it as a safe linux box for routeing, PII 450, no freaky stuff. so i dont need all the modules build in the standard kernel
<14> I'm having some font issues ... whenever I try to open emacs I get the errors I'm about to post in #flood
<10> xored: but it works ..
<10> xored: working is better than fast :)
<4> abrotman: hehe
<13> Woody^working: sorry, i thought you were interested in a perl script that created syntax-highlighted html snippets or full html files out of code
<4> abrotman: in addtion i just want to get "closer" to debain
<4> abrotman: as i wnat to switch my root-server in the future and iam not going to test "there"
<7> ootput: no, don't need that, put np :-D
<4> abrotman: it should be a lesson too :)
<10> root-server ?
<14> what packages do I need to install to fix those?
<10> drp: you sohuld wait until someone says they'll look before you paste :)
<10> drp: did you check the BTS?
<14> abrotman: I just ***umed a lot of people idles in #flood too
<4> abrotman: hmm its a german word i think. Iam admin of a hosted server. Do not knwo the exact word for that. Iam renting a server which is on 24/
<10> drp: there are 800 here .. and what .. 120 in #flood ?
<4> abrotman: 24/7
<10> xored: a DNS server? .. or you just mean you want to switch your co-lo server to debian ?
<4> abrotman: lets forget abnout it :) Iam renting a serer which runs suse9.1 ( it a web-server in generaly, and CVS ans stuff). i will switch it too, but i want to get closer to debian rigth now :) Iam running my himer-server on debian for 3 months now..just wnat to optimze it before i start with the new system on the other server
<10> ew!
